DR DOYLE AND THE JADE SAFARI

 DR DOYLE AND THE JADE SAFARI 

Alfred Applesnot was past his prime and his many enemies knew it, and to be fair, so did Alfred. 

His great adversary, Dr Theopolis Doyle was well aware of his predicament and suggested that he followed him on his quest to obtain the fabled "Jade Testicle of the Serengeti".

 Dr Doyle had recently being enjoying the benefits of being created the perpetual curate of the small but wealthy village of Ambalshit, but had an itch to obtain the sacred Jade Testicle.

 Many believed it to be no more than a myth, but the good doctor had other ideas, mainly due to an old manuscript that had fallen in to his slippery hands, whilst recovering the Munich Horn on an earlier escapade to Europe. The Munich Horn  had been a tricky affair, with many occasions when those involved believed all was lost. However, after eventually coming back to blighty with the goods, the nefarious Doctor was in good spirits. 

The manuscript revealing the location of the Jade Testicle was an added bonus, and one that could not be overlooked by the ever ambitious Dr Doyle. Alfred was determined to outwit his adversary this time, and wrench the fabled testicle from Dr Doyle's blotchy but muscular hands. Alfred had turned down the chance to be involved with the Munich Horn, but regretted the lost opportunity to outwit Dr Doyle. This time things would be different and Applesnot would claim all the glory of recovering the Jade Testicle, and returning if for detailed scientific analysis and interpretation.
